June 15, 2016 Storytime Live at 7:30pm (est)

Join me tonight so I can introduce you to a tenacious little girl who will help you remember that no matter what happens in life, ultimately, we are the heroes of our own stories.

I know life has been hard lately. I know the news has been devastating to watch and to hear. If you need 30 minutes of smiles and magic and an escape – to a bit of happiness and joy to rest up and gain strength – I promise to give that to you. I can’t fix the world, but I CAN provide a safe and happy and loving place for us to gather and take a breath and remember there is so much good in the world too. Please join me with your children, or alone. We’d love to have you – Stoytime is a truly magical place where all are welcome…just as you are.

As always, comment on this post by 7:15pm for a chance to win a gift from me to you!
***You don’t have to watch live to win, but you do have to watch by next week and email me at whatifmonster@gmail.com by Wednesday next week to claim you gift.***

LOVE it! My daughter and I both have high functioning Asperger’s, and the Whatif Monster is a favorite for us with all of the anxiety that goes with the diagnosis. My personal experience with undiagnosed Asperger’s as a child was full of bullying and ridicule, and when you read Cordelia to us at convention this year I full on cried. Thank you so much for something so amazing to read to my daughter and help her know she’s perfect just as she is. : )

My family is already in love with Cordelia! Reading her story together was one of the first things we did when I got home from Convention (they had to try on my superhero cape first, but Cordelia followed that immediately!). <3

I am so excited to meet this beautiful ginger-headed girl!!! Her rock sits in my wallet (where the change would normally go), and when I need to remember who I am….who I need to be…I hold her in my hand! I missed the story of how she came to life, which saddens me because that alone always has a beautiful message.
Tonight I will watch after I get home from bathing rescue puppies. Cordelia will be my bedtime story tonight, and I cannot wait!
And Yes…..it is a time of needing to breathe and heal from the sadness that still remains in this world. Thank you for making that happen, Michelle.<3

Hi Miss Michelle,
I cannot wait for next Tuesday….school is out!!! I’m looking forward to watching Storytime again! I cannot wait for Cordelia, so Mommy can order it for me!!! Hope you’re well!
All my love from NH,
Emily 🙂

Tristyn had dance on Wednesday during the summer, but reminded me twice this morning that we can watch the replay when she gets home. The Miller girls love Ms Michelle and I can’t wait for them to meet your newest baby! <3, Tiffany, Maleah, & Tristyn

We watched you from home at UBAM convention, and were instantly enamoured with Cordelia!! Can’t wait to watch again!
Total Michelle Nelson-Schmidt day in our house!! Our original Whatif Monsters arrived in the mail today too!! 😁

Can’t wait for my boys to hear you read Cordelia. They have read it so many times since I brought it home! My 6 year old really understood the message and it something he really needs to be reminded of. Thanks for creating such amazing books!

Christian and I are SO excited to finally meet Cordelia! We have her partners in life, WhatIf and Bob, and can’t wait to have her join them. Love the WhatIf business card holder too. As a polymer artist myself, I’d give it a 10. Christian and Kathryn Ottman
